Telegraph, of Monday, contains a continuation of Mr. Cal houn’s attack ori the President, iu the shape of an editorial article pur porting to be a reply to the strictures upon the Correspondence contained in the Globe. That the Telegraph should think it is the universe! opinion here, that Mr. Calhoun’s address is “truimph ant,” is to be accounted for only on tlie supposition, that the associates of its Editor are different from ours. In our intercourse with those around ! us, fve have not met with a man of the republican party, who docs not look upon the publication as wholly unnecessary, and adopted, if not in tended, to produce unqualified inis- chief. Further: wo have met with ardent and long deceived friends of Mr. Calhoun, who have been induc ed by this publication, so different in its disclosures from all they had un derstood of his course in relation t the Seminole war and subsequent c terits to abandon him forever. The Telegraph insists that Mr. Calhoun’s publication is not an at tuck on tho President, but a vindica tion of himself. “ Art thou in health, my brotherV’ said Joab to Amasa, as he smote him “in the fifth rib.” Such is tho Telegraph’s friendship for General Jackson. But let us examine this mutter. ! rtnn Jo an. Gulhoun vindi j eating himself?—Against the charge of Udlicity. By whom made? By j the President. How can he vindicate i himself but by saying und shewing, that the President has made a false charge? How enn he do that, with out impeaching the veracity of the President?. Hehusdoneit. In his letter to the President, of Ist June, 1830, he says: ,4 I feel myself impelled to notice some of your remarks, lest my silence should be construed in to acquiescence in Ihcir truth or justness tT Is not this us much as to say, they are Jatse and unjustl Again, in the same letter he says: •To conclusion, I must remark, that I bad sup posed that the want of sincerity 6nd frankness vYcuitl be the last charge that would be brought against me.—Coming from a quarter from which l bad reason to expect far different treatment, and destitute, as 1 know it to be, of the slightest foundation, it would not fail to excite feelings too warm to be expressed, with a due regard to the official relation Which I bear to you.” Here ho charges the President with the making a false charge with out the “ slightest foundation!” He would even say some very angry thing to the Old Soldier, but for the offices they hold 11 In his letter to the President of 25th August, he says : “After l had so fully demonstrated the candor and sincerity with which I have acted throughout this affair, I did ..t suppose that you would rei* tei ate your Cot mer charges ; but having done so, it only remains lor me to repeal, in tlie most po sitive manner, the contradiction u Here be charges tho President with reiterated falsehood ! But a gain, in the same letter, speaking of this correspondence he says: ’ Forced into it to repel unjust and bast impu tations upon my character, 1 could not retire in honor while they coutiuucd to be reiterated.* Here he is wrought up to say, the charges made by the President are uujust and base ! Mr. Calhoun was so determined I to level all his artillery at the Presi | t!e:it only, that he refused to permit the interposition of any body else. In a letter to Mr. Forsyth, dated Ist June he refuses even to accept proftred information from him, be cause his controversy was with the President. The President told him, tjiat hav ’ ihg been satisfied of bis doublc-deul ; ing by bis own admission, ho lcli “him, Mr. Crawford, and all con cerned, to settle the affair iq their own way.” In bis reply, dated 25th ■ August Mr. C ulhoun says r [New Series—No. 4L J “I too well know what is due to my lights /uutf 1 sclfrfcspect, in this unpleasant affair, lo permit, myself to be diverted into an altercation with Mr. Crawford or any oilier individual whom you may choose loconsidtr as concerned in this affair.” Although Mr. Calhoun thus char ges the President with falsehood, in justice, with reiterating “ unjust and base imputations,” und all “ without the slightest foundation,” and alter refusing to recognize nny other per son as “concerned in the affair,” the Telegraph now tells us he has not made any attack upon General Jack son !! 1 Mr. Calhoun’s “vindication” is “triumphant,” the Telegraph says. Over what or whom? The cluirg* Was “duplicity,” and Gen. Jackson the accuser. Tho “vindication” is “triumphant,” says the Telegraph. If it be, the charge has been proved to he false. Is that what the Tele graph means to sny? Does it say, that Mr. Calhoun has convicted the President of falsehood, injustice, and baseness? All this must be, if the vindication be “triumphant.” Such a “Jriend” of Gen. Jackson as the editor of the Telegraph, may ad mit this, hut we must lie excused for believing that the President has told the truth. And how do these “triumphant’’ gentlemen escape from the charge of making a direct attack on the Presi dent? Oddly enough. • MrrCallioiin says he lias been guilty of falsehood, injustice, and bnse imputations; but that he had been deceived, MISLED,’ ami DUPED into all this bv certain “ plotters and contrivers who are using him for their own person al advantage! Look at these very friendly inuendoes and assertions. In his letter to Gen. Jackson, of"39th May, hesay^: “1 shbuM be blind not to see, that this whol© affair was apolitical Mavazurre, in which the do sign is; that you should be the instrument, and myself the victim, but in which the real actor's are carefully concealed by an artful movement 19 In his letter of the first of June, to General Jackson, he says: “I have no dpnbt, that there are those who, ae* tuated by enmity to tm\ and nur Iriendshin to yoju, uhw, tn the tnusi artful manner, for year* intimated that S had been secretit to injure you, however absurd the idea ; but j must express my surprise that you should have permitted s base as they are false, to operate on you, when every word and act gave to thenrtbo lie direct.” In his letter to Gen. Jackson, of 22d June, he says: *T must r'*mark in conclusion, that the letter of Mr. Forsyth affords to my mind conclusive proof, that the intimations to thy prejudice, to which you refer in your letter 30th ultimo, and which you seem to think made no impression upon your mma, have not been without their intended effect.” In his letter of the 2oth August, to Gen. Jackson, he says : “It [the reference to Mr. Crawford for-infoi* mationj affords to my Mind, conclusive proof that you had permitted your feelings to be alienated by the artful movements of those who hare made you the victim of their intrigue long before tho com# mencement of this correspondence;” In his Address to the People, Mr Calhoun says:— “The origin [of the movement ngainet bir.i} goes far back, beyond the dale of the present correspondence, and had for its object, not th® advantage of Gen. Jackson r but mjr political deS struction, with motives which i leave you to in terpret. ” The Telegraph of the 17th inst., following up the lead of Mr. Calhoun, says;— “Fn proportion to this regret must be the ind/g* rtation against ail who have becu the plotters a/ui > movers, in reviving this almost forgotten subject*, and exciting a controversy which could be of no possible advantage to the country, nor any one except the contrivers themselves.” “We say plot* lers and contrivers&lc. And in the Telegraph of Monday, we arc assigned to the humble post of the organ of these •'plotters and contrivers ” in the following langu age:— ‘•Viewed as tlie organ of those with whom this intrigue originated, it* course [the Globe s] is ex plained iu that light, its attacks upon Mr. Calhoun are seen to bo but a continuation of the plot here tofore prosecuted iu the dark, now bursting into public view.” Now, in what light do Mr. Cal houn and the Editor ofthe Telegraph present the President to the world ? As guilty of reiterated falsehood, in justice, and baseimputatio'ns; but excusable, beafuse he is the DUPE of certain nameless ‘ plotters and eon 1 ri vers !’ Could they possbily place him in a more unci.vied ultiiude A Could they make an attack mere fa tal, if sustained, ora charge more degrading? By whom is this charger made? By his friends —aye. “his earliest and best friends,” as the Te legraph calls thorn, who eau insidi, • knock down, and degrade; and can | then soy, “my good sir, 1 meant vea 11 no harm —l made no attack.” !
